Congressman
Tim Huelskamp Endorses Ted Cruz for President
HOUSTON, Texas
– Today, Ted Cruz received the endorsement of Congressman Tim
Huelskamp
of Kansas. Congressman Huelskamp is the Chairman of the House Tea Party
Caucus and a leader in the House Freedom Caucus.
Congressman
Huelskamp has been an outspoken advocate for traditional marriage,
protecting the unborn, and defending our First Amendment liberties.
Huelskamp opposed President Obama's illegal executive amnesty, fought
back against economy-crippling regulations, and worked to defund
Obamacare.
"Ted
Cruz is a full spectrum conservative that the people of Kansas should
rally behind,” said Huelskamp. "I have seen Senator Cruz stand up for
conservative principles in Washington time and time again. Whether it's
President Obama's illegal executive amnesty, Obamacare, or massive
deficit spending, we can count on Ted to start making positive reforms
his first day in office. He is not one of those 'campaign
conservatives' who are all talk - he is a proven, principled
conservative."
“I
am thrilled to have the support of Congressman Huelskamp,” said Cruz.
“He is a man that has stood up to the Washington Cartel and fought for
conservative principles. Tim has been a stalwart leader in the House of
Representatives on issues that matter most for conservatives. From
life, to fighting to repeal Obamacare, I know I can count on Tim's
conservative, principled leadership."
